@narak_lol and @poppigirl - don't give up! This is HARD! I struggled with the scale going the wrong direction for YEARS, even though I was eating relatively well (most of the time) and exercising. I lost count of how many times I gave up, gave in, and then started over again. It's so frustrating - but you can do it! A loss…

Thanks @narak_lol I'm trying. What do they say? "the only way out is through" that's my mantra today. I'm sorry to see you had a rough week @poppigirl Trust me the struggle is the same here

On the struggle bus this morning. Its been an amazingly stressful week. work is insane. I saw my ex for the first time in months yesterday and I am ripped apart and was not expecting that. BUT - I am happy to see that other people doing this challenge are having good solid losses this week. Congrats! I am truly happy for…

This week has been a challenge. I am so hungry -actually, its probably boredom- not hunger. I guess I used to fill my spare time stuffing my face. have been trying to go for a walk when I get that feeling. I did go to the doctor and my cholesterol is 178 - down from 223 in March. HDL high and LDL low - so,that makes me…

My mini goal - which is closer than its been in years-- to get below 200. I started at 239.7, and now am at 202.6. I am almost there.

I buckled down and was serious about keeping within calorie goal. Also started using my fitbit instead of just tracking steps. I set it to remind me to move once an hour and that's what I've been doing. As often as I can, I get up out my chair at work and go out and walk around the building. Its a 10-15 minute walk,…

Congrats to everyone who posted a loss. Yay! To those who have stayed the same/ gained - Do not give up. Its a daily struggle for me too and every moment is an opportunity to succeed. Don't get caught up in the negative mind set. You can do it. Everyone slips up- it's ok. Just accept it and start over with the next thing…

last week I did great. I thought I was going to be posting a more significant loss, but, the weekend of family visiting, birthday parties and eating out - did me in -BUT I am victorious with a small loss. still moving in the right direction. I will crush it this week. I did reach another mini milestone- 30 pounds down from…

@soliver138 & @jaycee024 you can do it! It is a set back, but don't let it stop you. A few weeks ago I had a big gain (beach vacation), I was bummed. a few people stepped in and gave me some kind words, and I jumped back in (wasn't easy) and kept on moving. I was able to get the scale headed in the right direction and now…

Tried really hard- and it sucked -but the scale is moving in the right direction. Even though this week's loss was pretty great, my total loss for three weeks is 1.2lbs. That puts it in perspective that I put myself behind by gaining. I will never be sad about a "zero" weight loss week again. Thank you to @hillcrestbaby…

Thanks @hillcrestbaby and @sandflower81 . I'm still kicking myself- just need a little affirmation from the scale -that seems to be my best motivator, but your support and kind words remind me I am not alone. :smile:

I already posted my monday weigh in (gained 2+ pounds) - but feeling a little defeated -and its only wednesday. I was doing so well.... then vacation. I had a 40+ day streak of keeping under calorie goal and losing. I wasn't getting hungry any more and it was pretty easy. the vacation - I was on track then half way…

I have never done a challenge. I have lost 27 pounds since May and feel like I am doing really well. I am super happy, but I do not want to lose momentum and a challenge would be a good way to be some what accountable- at least to have others bear witness...

SW 238 CW 211 GW 200 TW 170 I know my target weight is really not a healthy weight, but I haven't been below 170 in 20+ years. Even that goal seems so far away, and so many failed attempts to get to my "ideal" weight just keep haunting me. To get to 170 would be a start, and 68 pounds lighter than where I began. I would be…
